From Configuration Chaos to Strategic Clarity:

How to Simplify IBM Apptio Targetprocess, Increase Adoption, and Eliminate Key-Person Risk
Thursday, September 17th | 2:00 PM ET


You invested in IBM’s Apptio Targetprocess (ATP) to bring clarity to strategic planning, portfolio management, and value delivery. Somewhere between “going live” and today, the environment got complicated. Ongoing configurations, fields, and new reports are being requested. Perhaps adoption never quite took off across half the organization. Or maybe you have that one “rockstar” employee who understands the whole system, but whose departure would be devastating.

We will cover:

  • The top administration challenges quietly draining value from ATP environments
  • The configuration pitfalls that turn flexibility into risk
  • The adoption gaps that keep the organization from using what you’ve built
  • The uncertainty that arises when key resources leave with their ATP knowledge

This session will provide practical approaches to protecting and maximizing your ATP investment and restoring trust, transparency, governance, and business confidence. Learn how to simplify complexity, drive adoption, and reduce key-person risk while improving strategic portfolio visibility and value delivery.

You’ll leave with a practical framework to address platform knowledge, close adoption gaps, and a roadmap to get more value out of the investment you’ve already made, no matter what happens to the team running it.

Learn how to:

  • Operationalize platform knowledge to decrease turnover risk
  • Improve adoption across portfolios, teams, and leadership
  • Align Targetprocess to strategic planning and value delivery goals without a costly reimplementation

Attend this conversation to shift the conversation from “how do I manage the tool?” to “how do I ensure the platform continues to support business growth, decision-making, governance, and transformation?”
